Heh. Via the Sacramento Bee: The look on Obama’s face as he looks at Biden is intriguing. Gotta wonder what he’s thinking there. And for extra laughs from the VP on a day where conservatives weren’t laughing much at all, there is this: “I’m proud to be president of the United States, but I am [...]
This about sum’s up the nauseating tone of the fawning MSM coverage of our celebrity President’s second (and thank goodness – LAST) inaugural address today (via Eliana Johnson at NRO): Barack Obama is perhaps the only modern president who has had the burden of swatting away comparisons between his own soaring rhetoric and that of [...]
Via MyFox Detroit: DETROIT (WJBK) — The city of Detroit faces a major financial crisis and one member of city council thinks President Barack Obama should step in and help. City Council member JoAnn Watson said Tuesday the citizens support of Obama in last month’s election was enough reason for the president to bailout the [...]
And conveniently he does so two weeks after the election: Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-Ill.) submitted a letter announcing his resignation from Congress to Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Wednesday, according to a Boehner aide. “For seventeen years I have given 100 percent of my time, energy, and life to public service,” Jackson wrote. “However, [...]

Call me crazy, but I think Congressman West has reason to be suspicious. Information on how [...]
This gets so bleeping tiresome. And is a point loudly echoed by liberal icon/hero Chris Matthews of MSDNC infamy – via Newsbusters’ Noel Sheppard: The list of words MSNBC’s Chris Matthews believes are racist if uttered by a conservative got longer on Wednesday. You can now add “urban” which offended Matthews when Congressman Paul Ryan [...]

And understandably so. Coming off a surprisingly lopsided defeat and still [...]
**Posted by Phineas Shamelessly lifted from Steven Hayward. These seem very apropos: On questions of economic law is does not matter at all what the electors think or vote or say. The economic laws proceed. (1929) “All men are created equal,” says the American Declaration of Independence. “All man shall be kept equal,” say the [...]
Priorities: Among the truly minor questions settled by Tuesday’s presidential election was this one: Would Joe Biden get a chance to play a winner on a sitcom? The answer is yes.
